Bigbob Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I reckon she's close to birth its six weeks less a day there preggers and it will be the hair falling out from round her nipples your seeing .I like plenty of shavings in the nest boxes as straw or hay or shredded papper can cover a kitt and a young jill on her first litter needs a bit of help she can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretman Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) i have always used shreded paper for the past 13 and always put shavings on the floor in the nest box and out in the run for years mate and all has been fine she will get the paper how she wants it flattend down. it is round 42 days so she will be getting her nest ready about 10 day befor just remember dont go helping her to much as she might kill the kits even if she is used to you.best regards i have a jill due next week.
